I have found a <div> element with class of .plainMail in a webpage and I want to be able to select all its text by pressing Ctrl+A.
I use Firefox 22. I was thinking about to turn the div.plainMail into a textarea. What can I do?
Update:
Can it be done via document.getElementsByClassName? because with document.getElementById I cannot do it. I use use GreaseMonkey.

I'm not sure about what you're exactly looking for, but you probably need HTML Content Editable attribute.
<div contenteditable="true">
This text can be edited by the user.
</div>
ONLINE DEMO.
By using JavaScript, you could add the attribute/value to the element as follows:
var d = document.getElementById("myelement");
d.setAttribute("contenteditable", "true"); // Or: d.contentEditable = "true";
UPDATED DEMO.
Can it be done via document.getElementsByClassName?
Sure (if you don't care about IE8 and below), but note that getElementsByClassName returns a NodeList of matching elements, not a single element.
Thus, we have to loop through the returned list to apply the attribute, as follows:
var i,
list = document.getElementsByClassName("content");
for (i = 0; i < list.length; ++i) {
list[i].setAttribute('contenteditable', 'true');
}
UPDATED DEMO.

while Googling I found this link. seems very nearest as per this question.
following css code can give a textarea effect to the div.
#div-textarea {
-moz-appearance: textfield-multiline;
-webkit-appearance: textarea;
border: 1px solid gray;
font: medium -moz-fixed;
font: -webkit-small-control;
overflow: auto;
padding: 2px;
resize: both;
}

I have problems activating a simple element in HTML via JavaScript.
So I have a simple Setup:
<a href="example.com">
</a>
<button>Klick</button>
Now I want, that if the button is clicked, some JS Code will be executed, which then "Clicks" the element. Similar to executing the .click() function on a button.
I also use jQuery, if that makes it easier for you. Thanks in advance.
native Js has a click() method on every elements, you just need to call it
let button = document.getElementById("button")
let link = document.getElementById("link")
button.onclick = () => link.click()
<a id="link" href="example.com"></a>
<button id="button">Klick</button>
if your objective is only to have a link looking like a button then using css is better than having 2 elements
as a bonus it allow you to keep all of the <a> default behavior you might lose by using a button
a {
text-decoration: none;
color: inherit;
padding: 2px 25px;
border: 1px solid #b6b6b3;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #e0e0df;
}
a:hover {
background-color: #fafafa;
}
I'm a <a>
<button>I'm a <button></button>

I am trying to create button effect in which will change its color on click and returns to its original colour after the click.
A conditional was added within the button effect to returns to its original code.
In this case I have four variables storing each color and instantiates for each button id in HTML.
// VARIABLES - ids from DOM instantiated as querySelector().
const btnBlue = document.querySelectorAll("#btnBlue");
const btnGreen = document.querySelectorAll("#btnGreen");
const btnRed = document.querySelectorAll("#btnRed");
const btnYellow = document.querySelectorAll("#btnYellow");
Giving an example of a button here is where I am stuck with the logic.
// Exemple with blue button:
$(btnBlue).click(function() {
$(this).css('background-color', '#00FFFF');
// the play() func does other logic such as join other functions
// together and flash all the buttons in different order.
blueBtnAudio.play();
if(btnBlue == '#00FFFF' ){
$(btnBlue).stop();
}
});
There's no need for any JS here. You can do this with CSS alone by using the :active pseudo-selector:
button {
background-color: #CCC;
border: 0;
border-radius: 5px;
padding: 10px 20px;
outline: 0;
}
button:active {
background-color: #C00;
color: #EEE;
}
<button>Click me</button>

I have several pictures of the same button, each one representing it in a different sate: normal, pressed, focused, disabled.
How can I make it into an html button that automatically shows the correct picture (and also has an onClick event) ?
Feel free to use html / css / javascript.
The tag also doesn't need to be a button, it could be an image, , or whatever you want, but hopefully written in a generic enough way for others to use your solution too
Thanks!
Just add a class to a link:
<a href="#" class='styledbutton'>Buttontext</a>
... and some CSS:
.styledbutton {background: url(defaultstate.png); display: inline-block;}
.styledbutton:hover {background: url(hoverstate.png);}
.styledbutton:focus {background: url(focusstate.png);}
You can make use of the CSS pseudo-selectors :hover and :focus to change the state of a button at various different interaction points, and simply tie a function into the onclick event in order to run additional JavaScript if required:
function buttonClick() {
console.log('Button clicked');
}
button { /* Default state */
background: white;
}
button:hover { /* On hover */
background: red;
}
button:focus { /* After a click */
background: blue;
}
<button onclick="buttonClick()">Button</button>
Keep in mind that this can also be done with an image by simply passing the image's path into background-image as a url() value.

My goal is to display text on a screen as a user types it, with an underscore cursor showing after the text. The best way I can describe what I'm trying to do is a similar look to using the command line.
What is the best way to do this? I haven't been able to get it to work using a simple text input with css.
Here's something to get you started with jQuery.
$('input').on('input', function(e){
$('div').empty().text($(this).val());
});
Edit: blinking underscore can be done with CSS
div:after{
content:"_";
opacity:0;
animation:blink .500s linear infinite;
}
#keyframes blink{
from{opacity:0;}
to{opacity:1;}
}
The best way? Read the content on every keyup and then inject it into a destination container to show it to the user. Easy.
Check this: http://jsfiddle.net/VDd6C/8/
Show us your code. We'll help.
A basic one, try this (tested in Chrome and FF)
Play it here
HTML
<div>
<span contenteditable="true">Enter your input: </span><span class="blink">_</span>
</div>
JavaScript
window.setInterval(function(){
$('.blink').toggle();
}, 450);
CSS
body {
background-color: black;
color:white;
font-size: 15px;
font-weight:bold;
font-family: courier;
}
span {
border: none;
}
div {
max-width: 200px;
}
div:focus, span:focus{
outline: 0;
}

Is it possible to make the trimmed borders by "border-radius" unclickable, and also not detecting you are hovering over it?
One way is to make the wrapping div and a tags also have a border radius...
.blackground > div, .blackground > div a {
border-radius: 100%;
}
.blackground > div a {
display:block;
}
The trick is to make the <a> tag the one whose size changes, because that's the element that determines the click area.
So you can do
.backgroud > div > a {
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
Then remove the border radius (if you want) on the actual image.
